The goddess Hekate (or Hecate) is a goddess in ancient Greek religion and mythology depicted as three-formed or triple-bodied enabling her to see in all directions. She is associated with crossroads, entrance-ways, night, light, magic, witchcraft, the Moon, knowledge of herbs and poisonous plants, graves, ghosts, necromancy, and sorcery. She is also worshipped as a protector of households. It is said that you know she is present when the dogs begin to howl and bark. You can read more about her here: mythopedia.com/topics/hecate I've stumbled across three threes so far that have triple trunks, fused together at their base but separating into three trunks as they grew. I've named them Hekatrees in honor of the goddess. 🌳🌳🌳

Photographs of the pond surface are a constant theme in my photography.
The cedar fell many years ago and has remained in this position since the first time I saw it, probably 15 years ago. Its skeleton serves as a platform for sliders and other kinds of turtles to warm up in the sun. Birds perch here sometimes, of course. This photo was taken with a Nikon F3 HP using a Nikon 25-50mm lens and a Komura Telemore95 II lens extender and f/4, 1/60 that created the soft, dreamy focus. I had Ilford HP5 Plus 400 film in the camera.
